Message:: [QUOTE="stevex6, post: 1646703, member: 44183"]Canadian 50 cent => *rats* => I'm only "one away" => but such a long way away (*sigh*) So I have "almost" completed one of my awesome old-school coin albums (the album itself was published in 1959!! ... how awesome!!?) ... sadly, the very last coin is the dreaded "1947 Maple Leaf, Curved  Seven" (a coin that I've only seen once at auction and stupidly, I assumed that my bid was gonna win!! ... apparently not!!) Anyway => even a VF of this variety has a book vale of $3000 ... and honestly, a VF would look a bit like a pig with make-up on when compared against the other coins in this album (EF+) ... oh, and EF of this variety goes for $4000 ... and my wish-list so that it goes along with the rest of the album's coins => an AU-50 is $5000 (that's a whole lotta cash!!) *sigh* Oh well ... maybe one day I'll see the elusive coin once again (and hopefully I'll have a bit of loose-change to jump on it!!?) Blah-Blah-Blah ... so, I'd like to show-off my Canadian 50-cent piece album (only "1" coin missing!!) ... sorry about the poor photos (the coins are certainly way-nicer than they appear!!) Cheers, my Canadian coin brothers!! :cheers: [ATTACH]238416.vB[/ATTACH][/QUOTE]
